I was following the directions in Chapter 18. Setting Up A Remote Diskless System 
<https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/14/html/Storage_Administration_Guide/nfs-diskless-systems.html>
 and got to 18.3 
<https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/14/html/Storage_Administration_Guide/diskless-nfs-config.html>
 where it said Fedora could be installed to a directory that would be exported.  I had 
previously created a 2GB ext4 LVM volume and mounted it at /diskless/myhostname and then 
attempted to execute the yum command:

[root@myserver yum.repos.d]# yum groupinstall Base 
--installroot=/diskless/myhostname
Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit
fedora/metalink                                                                 
                                           |  18 kB     00:00
Could not parse metalink 
https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=fedora-$releasever&arch=x86_64 
error was
No repomd file
Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: fedora. 
Please verify its path and try again
[root@myserver yum.repos.d]#

yum update works fine.  I tried doing a "yum clean all".  Did not fix it.  What 
step am I missing?  Thank you.
